HARMONY In THE K. OF L.

The Reports of Dissension Exaggerated.
Meeting Of the National Assembly.
PTTsBURG, September "a. A. Carl
ton and Ira B. Aylsworth, of the General
Executive Board Of the X. of L. were in
the city to-day en- route from Chicago to
headquarters of the order in Philadelphia.
Mr.. Carlton stated that previous to visit
ing Chicago he was in Canada organizing
the working men. Since the removal Of
the mandamus of Cardinal Tascherean
large numbers have Joined the order there
and Canada is now their greatest field for
increasing the membership. Referring to
rumors of growing dissensions among the
L. OF L., particularly in Chicago, Mr..
Carlton said: ''We have not yet made up
our report, but this much | can say, we
found the stories of dissension were exag-
gerated. In my travels met representa-
tive members who reported that there was
not anything like dissension that 1t has
been asserted existed. saw leaders Of So
called malcontents; ropposition is only
on minor points upon which they will
probably make move at the next General
Assembly TO be held at Minneapolis in
October They will have no influence on
matters that will materially affect the
management OF the order.

THE STATE FAIR.

Large Receipts of Live Stock, Machinery
and General Exhibits, Yesterday.
Yesterday was by far the busiest day
vet seen on the State Fair Grounds. Ex-
hibits of all kinds began to pour in at an
early hour in the morning, and all day and
late into the night all manner Of entries,
from live stock to an oil painting, or q new
pattern of knit work, were brought inside
the gates by dusty and perspiring men,
women and children, and deposited in the
spots allotted their several owners. The
late arrivals were entirely live stock, and
by midnight very large proportion of the
pens and stalls were filled up, and the
scene after dark took on a distinctive and
decided barn-yard appearance. Cattle,
sheen and hogs were on all sides, and
those having charge Of them were busy
proyiding water, feed and bedding for the
night. Tonight further large shipments
are expected, and Monday morning the
remainder of the entries will be on hand.
1t promises to be the largest stock show
ever seen in this city.
Nearly all the race horses will be on the
grounds by tonight, but some will not
appear before Monday, it being i'm
possible to get them here from other parts
in time. As there are no races until Tues
day, there will be ample time TO get the
nags in order. The track is being carefully
attended to and will be in fine condition.
The main building last night showed
the effects of the hard work put upon Its
interior during the day, and by tomorrow
noon it will present a gorgeous appearance.
The exhibitors are yieing with each other
as to which shall make the most attractive
display, and the result is we'll calculated TO
attract and maintain public interest.
Machinery Hall is filling up very rap,d-
ly. The amount Of stuff now IN the build
ing is simply immense, but still there Is
much to come. Everything is ready IN
floral and horticultural halls, but nothing
will be put in thsre by exhibitors untii
tomorrow morning, as this stun Is mostly
of perishable nature. .
Rain is very badly needed. The dust
in the grounds has been something terrinc
during the past week, but to-morro"
morning all the paths, road ways, the
track, SC, viii be well sprinklsd, and
this will be done as often as may be needed

VICTIMS OF CHATSWORTH.
Of the Number of Dead-l@6
Bodies Recovered.

Statements of the Number of Dead-l26
Bodies Recovered.
CHICAGO, September Am Indianapo'
lis, Ind, special says: A railroad man in
this city says that from statements made
by one of the Toledo, Peoria and Western
company's employees, who worked at the
Chatsworth wreck night and day until il
was cleared away, he is convinced that l26
persons lost their lives at that place. This
railroad employe says he personally knew
of that number of bodies being taken out
dead, which were shipped away to various
parts of the country as rapidly as possible.
This evidence is corroborated by the state
ments of residents Of Peoria visiting mere.
They say that number of young men went
out to the scene of the wreck on the first
relief train and remained all day. They
stated ON their return that they had
counted 10 bodies taken out up to the
time they left, and that it was believed
that several more had been entirely con-
sumed in the wreck.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS REVIVED.

American Party to Hold Convention.
Political Speculation.
WASHINGTON, September 3.-The con-
veDtion of the so-called American party,
which will be held at Philadelphia Sep
tember 16, Is attracting the attention OF
those who closely watch political move
ments.
The arrangements for holding this con-
vention have been perfected so quietly that
it is expected that the organization Is be-
coming more comprehensive in member
ship and extensive in Jurisdiction than has
been supposed. ,...s s,,sfr ..
In connection with this movement il is
proposed to establish in New York City a
weekly newspaper to explain and advocate
the principles and aims of the order.
Large subscriptions have already been
made for this purpose The reticence OF
the leaders in the American party move
ment is puzzling to the politicians, who
are curious to learn all It's purposes, that
they may be able to speculate on the prob
lem as to whether the American party will
draw greater membership from the Repub-
lican or Democratic parties. It's expected
that one of the principal declarations of the
Philadelphia convention will be in favor OF
a stringent law imposing certain restric-
tions on foreign immigration.

VIII the Western Union Control the Tele-
Eraph?-Mysterious silence.
NEW YORK, September 3.-Mr. Jay
Gould did not go TO his oitice this morn
ing, but his son George was at the office
and chatted about the B. & o. topic.
"The public assume that the B. & o.
Telegraph will come your way. They
take that for granted" was suggested by a
gentleman present.
II think it is too early to assume any
thing" returned Mr.. Gould, The set
tlement of the B. & o. matter is, however,
in my Judgment, one OF the most fortunate
adjustments that has happened for years
to the financial world. | believe that the
conclusion of the B. TO. K. K. negotia-
tions viii act like thunder storm on a
sultry day, and will clear the atmosphere.

and think its effects will be far-reachiug.

fitted"
And it's q fair presumption that there
has been some discussion OF the telegraph
end of the property coming your way, Is il
nOt?" asked the gentleman.
There was q faint smile on Mr.. Gould s
swarthy face as he replied: II know of nc
discussion even" Said he: 1T is, OF
course, possible that my father may have
had such without my knowing 1t; but, not
to be mysterious about the matter, think
il yet too early to take anything for
granted The railroad business Is now
adjusted, and people must have time &c
investigate and determine just where they
stand before acting further. should
Judge that TO be a rational assumption"
Mr.. Bowdoin, of Drexel, Morgan & Co.
in speaking of the B. & o deal to day,
said: ''Drexel, Morgan Il Co. know moth
ing about the matter. We are simply IN
the syndicate that was formed to take up
the B. & o. securities and straighten out
the railroad. What, if anything, will be
done with the telegraph company is not
known 80 far, aud it is too early to discuss
it. 1t is well known fact that many are
seeking to purchase it, bat whether Gould
or Mackay gets it or it remains as 1t now
is. cannot be told now. 1 do not think
that Mr. Gould has moved in the matter
at all -
